TLDR
F fetal liver FABPs play a regulatory role in critical aspects of cellular physiology during human embryogenesis and protect glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase from the feed-back inhibition exerted by added palmitoyl-CoA and oleate.

Structural and functional features of different types of cytoplasmic fatty acid-binding proteins

TL;DR: Article de synthese sur les donnees recentes de caracteristiques structurales et physicochimiques de divers types of proteines de liaison aux acides gras, avec la signification physiologique de ces diversites.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functions of fatty acid binding proteins.

TL;DR: A considerable body of indirect evidence is provided supporting a broad role for the FABP in the intracellular transport and metabolism of long-chain fatty acids and the existence of structure- and tissue-specific specialization of function among different members of the F ABP gene family.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fatty acid binding protein isoforms: structure and function

TL;DR: Which FABPs form biochemically defined or true isoforms versus FABP that form additional forms, operationally defined as isoforms, is critically evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acyl-CoA binding proteins: Multiplicity and function

TL;DR: The identity, nature, function, and pathobiology of these fascinating newly discovered long-chain fatty acyl-CoA binding proteins are explored.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isoforms of rat liver fatty acid binding protein differ in structure and affinity for fatty acids and fatty acyl CoAs.

TL;DR: Rat L-FABP isoforms differ markedly in both structure and ligand binding function, and displacement studies indicated that each isoform displayed distinct specificities for fatty acid/fatty acyl CoA chain length and unsaturation.

[38] Gel electrofocusing

C.W. Wrigley
TL;DR: Gel electrofocusing as mentioned in this paper is an extension of the technique of electroocusing in a density gradient and is based on the same principle of fractionation, which is more suitable for analytical fractionation of many small samples.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tissue specific expression and developmental regulation of two genes coding for rat fatty acid binding proteins.

TL;DR: Observations support the concept that the major role of these proteins is to facilitate the entry of lipids into cells and/or their subsequent intracellular transport and compartmentalization.
